There are 80+ stickers in the set (perfect for planners, BUJOs, journals, etc.) in all shapes, sizes, and pink/peach/beige colors. But I especially love how my Cricut cut these little stamps!

I started my first Bullet Journal a couple of year I started my first Bullet Journal a couple of years ago and only made it through June before going back to a regular journal. But this year I tried it again! There are so many things I love about BUJOs, like creating a perfect planner that is unique to me/my days/my business, how creative and cute I can make it, and, of course, how it helps me keep track of things that are important to me. But again, about half way through the year, I started to get burnt out with it! Repeating the monthly and weekly spreads became sooo boring. At first I decided to plow through. I knew the way my spreads worked I had exactly enough pages in my journal to complete the year. And what would I do with a half-filled planner?! But the other day I thought… why not create pages — especially those dreaded weekly spreads — digitally and just print them out and paste them into my planner!! I know this isn’t legit bullet journaling… but it certainly is a form of planning that makes me happy! I decided to make monthly sets to sell, too! The first one is for September, and is in my blog shop as well as in my Etsy shop! (Links in bio.) They come with a monthly cover page (what you see here), a monthly dates spread, a weekly spread, and a monthly habit tracker. You get both A4 and 5.5”x8.5” sizes, so you can use the one that best fits your needs. I hope you’ll go check them out! 🤗❤️🗓📔
Only one pack left of these vintage, new, and made Only one pack left of these vintage, new, and made by me paper packs!
